This does not, however, mean it will take you up to a year to experience relief. Most iOBX patients start noticing improvement within just six weeks following their procedure. As for how long you can expect it to last depends on your area being treated. Different joints respond differently to stem cell therapy.

]]> Unfortunately, Insurance and Medicare do not cover treatment yet despite our 93% success rate, which is much higher than many treatments, they do currently cover.

Another thing to consider when evaluating the actual cost of stem cell treatment is that most workers’ compensation claims, VAMCA, and individuals health savings accounts (HSA) will cover stem cells.
